senate 03/26/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to enhance outbound inspections at the U.S.-Mexico border to better detect and prevent the smuggling of firearms, currency, and contraband. By increasing non-intrusive imaging systems and deploying additional Homeland Security personnel, our aim is to bolster border security and disrupt illegal trafficking networks. This legislation prioritizes safety and collaboration, ensuring the U.S. remains proactive in addressing cross-border challenges.
